Abstract
A system determinative of correct orientation of components during an automation procedure, including a path of travel of the components and an ejection zone disposed along the path of travel. An orientation detector includes a detection structure integrated into the path of travel and disposed and configured to determine the orientation of the components based on the physical characteristics thereof. The detection structure is disposed in interruptive, movable engagement with disoriented ones of the plurality of components and is configured to displace such disoriented components from said path of travel into an ejection zone. An ejector is disposed in operative communication with the ejection zone and is structurally operative to displace the disoriented components from the ejection zone and remove them from said path of travel.
